Except for the man on the top of the Ex list, nobody has wow'd anyone. (The pitcher list would have more than one guy.)
-
Either way, the opposite is happening to us than what the Rays seem to do.
-
Yes, and... Chang went on the IL... DHam sucked... Reyes came too late, and then was not played at SS, daily...

What the hell is going on with our luck? Zack Littell goes 8 IP for the Rays allowing 5 hits and just 1 run (1BB & 4K!) Luis Castillo out-dueled him and SEA won 1-0. The Tigers are up 10-3, late on the Yanks, for all those who felt they are better than us. (They may still prove to be.)
-
I debated flipping Teel & Anthony. I had a hard time figuring Bleis, Romero and Drohan.
-
I think the idea was try Kike for 4-6 weeks, and if he was not working out, Mondesi would be ready to carry us to Story. The whole plan fell apart when Kike imploded from opening day on.
-
We did end up needing a SS who could play D. If Mondesi's knee healed in the normal time, he'd have been useful. How is that curious? Yes, both Mondesi and Story were out to start the year, but Mondesi was thought to be possibly ready by May. Kluber was well rested, after missing years of work.
-
$3.045M/1, but we traded Josh Taylor $1.025, so the hit was$2.2M
-
There are a few players that could easily be traded or DFA'd to make room for Rule 5 additions (5-8 slots, maybe) and roster additions via free agency or trade (3-6 slots, maybe.) 60 Day IL Players will be added of dealt with, somehow: Duran - added Kelly - added Mills - added Mondesi, Kluber & Ort will be free agents or DFA'd The three added can take the place of JT, Duvall and Paxton- the free agents-to-be. The non-tenders, DFA or trade candidates: DFA Logan Gillaspie Zach Weiss Kyle Barraclough Mauricio Llovera Joe Jacques Justin Garza Trade/DFA Bobby Dalbec Bryan Mata Trade? David Hamilton Zach Kelly Brandon Walter Nick Robertson Joely Rodriguez ($4.25M option)

There are posters who have mentioned trading Dugo for equal return, perhaps at another position of higher need or maybe a RH'd OF bat. Dumping a very good player is not what anyone has suggested. He's also had some, let's call them, "attitude incidents." He's a good RF'er on D. He's a good hitter vs RHPs. He's got one year of control left. He has real value to us and to other teams. -
I just made a list of all Sox players with 300+ PAs and their OPS. You chose to compare him to the 2Bman. Someone else compared him to our SS. You do what you want and want to view as relevant.

Here is my new rankings list, which can change with the wind... 1. Anthony 2. Teel 3. Mayer 4. Rafaela 5. Cespedes 6. Bleis 7. Wikelman 8. Perales 9. Joh Garcia 10. Yorke 11. Castro 12. W Abreu 13. Zanetello 14. Romero 15. Monegro 16. Anderson 17. Gambrell 18. Hickey 19. E R-C 20. Bonachi 21.Meidroth 22. EValdez 23. S Scott 24. Drohan 25. Mata 26. Guerrero 27. I Coffey 28. K Campbell 29. DHam 30. Jordan 31. Yuten 32.Rosier Out of top 32: Alcantara, Paulino, Walter, Fernandez, C Coffey

Got it. I misread what you wrote. I think some team might give us a single A prospect for a chance on Bobby Dee, but only if they have 40 man roster room and need a DH.
-
He must be a much better fielder than Dalbec. LOL
-
I don't get how TBR gets Civale for a 1Bman with a .780 AAA OPS.
-
If that is not reason enough, what will ever be?
-
He's holding out for more- like he did with JD.
-
I'm not. Are you?
-
Can't trade JT, now.
-
Out of 26 players with the Sox with 300+ PAs since 2018, Dalbec is about mid pack at .750. 11. .774 Dugo T12. .772 Holt & Ref 14. .750 Dalbec 15. Duran .729 17. Vaz .714 18. JBJ .712 19. Chavis .704 20. Wong .700 21. Plawecki .697 22. Story .691 23. Kike .690 24. Nunez .644 25. Cordero .629 26. Leon .525 Dalbec's career 650 PA line: .231 29 85

With just about no 1B depth, if JT leaves, we may hold a 40 slot for Dalbec, but I'd trade him for a non 40 man roster crapshoot guy. DFA him, if nobody wants him, but I think you are selling him short. Mata may not fit into anyone's 40 man roster, so if we can't trade him, we'll have to keep him on the 40 or try to sneak him through waivers and hope he signs a minor league deal with us, I guess. I'm tired of keeping injury guys on our 40, so it's time to clean some up.

Max, the evidence is there for you to see. It's there when you watch the games. It's not futile to want to discuss an aspect of the game that has cost us at least 5 games, when we are 5 games from the playoffs. Just because you don't want to hear about it does not make it futile, and again- NOBODY is saying pitching and hitting matter less, yet you keep saying the same thing over and over- like we disagree. BTW, not a single poster wants to "dump" Verdugo. Not one. -

It's not being an optimist to show facts that indicate we have been near 2-6 games over .500 than +2 to -2 around it. That's who we have been. Where we think we end up has to do with optimism or pessimism. -
Rosier turns 24, today. His .799 OPS is not eye-popping, but it's improved as he's moved up levels. He's also been on base about 140 times and has 49 SBs. He has as good a chance at making a ML impact as Groome does with his 8.63 ERA. Who is the delusional one, here?
